Since most of the work I do is personal, it is a delight when my clients' reciprocate with a referral. I'll let you read it for yourself. Thank you Sheila and Matt! -
"Dear Rebecca:
Matt and I wanted you to know how pleased we were with the services you provided us relating to our home sale on Lancaster Drive in Red Deer.
We found you to be both professional and knowledgeable. You took the time to sit down with us and discuss our goals in terms of timing and finances. Since we wanted to relocate out of the country quickly, our primary goal was to sell our house quickly for the highest price possible. You prepared fantastic marketing materials which included photos of the house that really highlighted some of it's desireable features. You showed us data about recent home sales and listings in our area that helped us decide on an asking price that would attract buyers.
After only two showings, we received an attractive offer which we accepted and the sale was completed 3 weeks later. We really appreciated you staying involved throughout the entire process and making sure we were always updated with each step along the way.
We would definitely recommend you and your services to anyone in the Central Alberta area who is thinking of buying or selling a home.
